iPad cases with wheelchair mounting capability

A quick note to pass along on a valuable tool that can be used with the iPad to enhance its functionality. We were made aware that the New Lenox School District has begun using these cases within their classrooms to benefit their students and teachers.

Here is the link to the AMDi website which has products including the iPad case as well as other products for individuals with disabilities.
